What Electrolux Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not draining. Electrolux says to confirm the disposer knockout plug is removed, straighten any kinks in the drain hose, and clean the glass trap and filter. Source: Electrolux - What can I do if my dishwasher is not draining?
- Dishwasher leaking. Electrolux says to check first that the drain hose is installed correctly and unblocked and that the door closes fully, since the kick plate can keep it from shutting. Source: Electrolux - Dishwasher - Water Leaking

Local Notes for Seattle
Seattle Public Utilities, which supplies Seattle, reports hardness of about 1.5-1.7 grains per gallon (calcium hardness roughly 24-26 mg/L as CaCO3) in Cedar and Tolt supply water (soft). Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
